Chapter 32

AZARADAN

Night

Warriors gathered outside the crown prince's chambers to say their farewell. As usual, the captain stood ahead of her army, waiting for the crown prince to step out and give them his blessings. Kro couldn't wait to see Buk. She hadn't seen him in days, and it hurt her that she couldn't comfort him the way she was supposed to.

Their relationship, which by then was supposed to be announced, was still a secret after the unfortunate death of the king. 2 days earlier, Buk had told his father about Kro, and according to laws of the kingdom, the next day, she was supposed to be announced and prepared to be crowned the crown princess and their relationship to be known by every citizen. But fate seemed to have taken a dark turn. Because of that, in front of everyone, the two lovers needed to act as master and servant, like before.
